I shower with my flex. Has anyone had issues with water getting into the chamber or view window?

Sometimes I take mine off to shower and sometimes not, yes water can get into these AND the Fitbit bands. Don't delude yourself into thinking the 'brand bands' do not have this issue also because they do. The bands are not waterproof, nor resistant. You have to care for your tracker. The trackers are waterproof, submerged in water up to 10 meters of depth. Thereafter no. If I notice water in mine, I take the tracker out, dry it well and then smoosh tissue up into both chambers to absorb excess water. Then I take a Qtip to both ends to make sure I have all of the water out. I've had mine for four months, LOVE my Fitbit and this works for me.

I just bought this wrist band. It leaks horribly!! Also, no matter how much I try to dry it steam builds up in the window. This is not good for the tracker as it is water resistant not waterproof. I have to order a new bracelet and will be going directly through Fitbit this time.

I've had this issue and I don't swim or shower in mine. I had to stop using it.

I wear mine in the shower everyday and have not had that issue. It stays dry.

Yes. I swim with mine and have the same issue. I usually just take out the tracker, dry it, and put it back in.

Yes, I have this issue too and I swim with it as well. I usually take out the tracker and dry it out a couple times a day. I'm assuming that the tracker is waterproof though! I've had mine for 3 months and it's still going strong.

Mine has given me no problem at all and it gets wet a lot. For the price a guy could have a couple on hand!

Mine was like that too. Filling the tub is an issue. I had to choke down my main supply valve to about half and put flow restricters on all the other fixtures. Kind of a pain but it saves water too. We all take showers anyway but could fill the tub just takes a while.

If the side spray is dribbling water, it is more than likely an installation issue, as water should not drip from the spray unless the handle is pushed which releases the valve to allow water to pass through.

When using it in a bathroom, keep a door open when showering. If a lot of water collects on the bathroom surfaces, that would be very bad for the heater's (any heater) longevity & could pose a potential danger to you.

I haven't had any problem. If there's not an obvious physical issue, maybe you could try washing the suction cups and the shower tiles with vinegar to remove any oily substance?

works fine for me on 'flood' setting, what your describing is often a problem with the shower valve.

I haven't had the problem. It dripped slightly when first installed, but I hand-tightened it some more and it has been absolutely fine for the past 60 days.

Hi, Look it's not sealed, if any water will reach the space between the base and the shade it can cause a short circuit. If do put in the shower, mount it far away from any water source. Anyway it's not safe.

I am having the same problem with mine. My friend tested it and found it works okay at some water pressures but not others.

I've had mine up for a few months now and have had NO slip/fall issues withe the shower rod. I even have a pocketed liner with a few lite items & still no issues!

Sounds like you might be missing the trim rings? Basically a chrome, thin wall pipe that threads on to the valve body to cover the exposed valve stem, and an escutcheon that covers the hole in your shower surround. The handles should overlap the chrome pipe to prevent excess water entry

I've had no problems with mine. Sounds like mineral deposits or something is clogging yours. It is a small opening and would not take much to clog it. Maybe run the shower for a few minutes without the fixture on if you have not tried that.

I didn't have the bend problem. I do wonder, though, how well does the loose glass prevent the bathroom mist get into the light bulb cavity?

I had this too. I ran 2 full containers of just water through it. It's fine now.

I installed two units in windows that slide sideways to close, I have only one side catching the window, but have had no problems with the conditioner falling out.
